St Luke's Take 2 - News Flash!

It was one of my husband's friends birthdays yesterday and he asked me to make a card for him.  He's not an outdoorsy or sporty type, but loves films, tv and video games so I knew that my papersmooches set was the perfect choice.  This would be a perfect card to enter to our "Let's Hear it For the Boys" challenge over at St Luke's Charity Cards Challenge http://stlukescharitycardschallenge.blogspot.com/2011/10/lets-hear-it-for-boys.html we have a great prize up for grabs and you still have 2 weeks to join us with your masculine themed cards.


For this card I stuck to 3 colours - kraft, red-brown and black.  I like the simple retro effect.  The TV set was coloured with copics direct onto kraft and glossy accents provided the shiny screen.  I split the sentiment and image up for added interest as I like the strong black matt for masculine cards.

I am entering this into the anything goes challenge at http://onestopcraftchallenge.blogspot.com/2011/10/week-152-anything-goes.html

Thanks for stopping by  x
